[ARC5] BC-375 tubes

[Dennis Monticelli]

Mike,

That's a good idea.  The 826 was intended for VHF originally, but a triode
is a triode. With its mu of about 30 it should oscillate well.  I'm pretty
sure the audiophools have discovered it along with every other triode in
existence.  It was probably rejected for having too much distortion....good
for us.
